Hey folks, Firstly for those who don;t know, my amp collection consists of a Marshall MG15 and a gorgeous Laney VC50. However, the Laney has to stay at my parents house while I'm up at uni, coz its just too big! So I was playing through my Marshall earlier, and I noticed that the drive channel...

Ladies and gentlemen of the forum, Some of you may remember my initial excitement at the purchase of a Warmoth Explorer nearly 2 years ago. You may also know that this guitar has been plagued with difficulties (mainly my inability to solder) resulting in it spending a lot of the time sat doing...

Hey guys, I plugged into my Laney VC50 today and the volume was incredibly low. As in I had to turn this 50W 2x12 up to full to hear anything coming out of the speakers over the sound of my strings. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is/how to fix it?

My church just ordered one, and I'm probably gonna be the only guy to use it. Anyone played one? Just want to know if my tone's gonna suck or not...

I love them all!!! I started a thread asking what happened to The Well, and this was my punishm- errr... reward! Fire away!!

I am now the proud owner of a Laney VC50! For those who didn't see my other thread, I travelled to Brighton to purchase said amp from our forum bro richard parker. This is my first valve amp, and I must say it sounds gorgeous! The clean channel sparkles, the drive channel growls, and it can...

On Sunday I shall be getting the train to Brighton to buy a Laney VC50 from our very own richard parker!! This will be my first tube amp. Up till now I've been using a Marshall MG series 15 watter. :D

I'm listening to it for the first time... How have I not discovered this before???? What an album!

I know next to nothing about amp wiring, so I thought I'd ask the experts: Is there any reason why one couldn't wire an amp to have different power tubes for the clean and gain channels? e.g. a 6L6 clean channel and an EL34 gain channel? Please satisfy my curiosity EDIT: This is with...

Hey guys, I was working on my new Warmoth, resoldering a bad joint on the circuit board of the Fishman powerchip (http://www.fishman.com/products/details.asp?id=33) and the solder pad came right off the board. Is there any way to fix this, or do I have to drop £75 for a new one?? Thanks

But they didn't drill one of the holes I asked for! I'm quite annoyed about this. Aside from that it's awesome, but I wish they'd looked more closely at my order before they ship it to me 3 weeks early...

Hi all, As you may have seen, I have a new guitar arriving in bits tomorrow which I shall be assembling. However, my dilemma is this: I'm used to playing 10's on my Strat. The Warmoth is going to be Gibson-scale (24.75"). Should I use 10's or 11's on this one? Any forum bro's have experience...

Like, 3 weeks before they said it would!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!!! Pics will, of course, be forthcoming :)

The previous owner of my second hand Squier strat told me he'd replaced the bridge pickup with a Duncan and the neck and middle with Fenders. However, when I took the guard off the other day I noticed all 3 pickups were plain black on the bottom. Is this normal, or have I been told porkies?? Thanks

Hi all, A friend of mine bought a pretty nice Tanglewood acoustic for £9 (!), but the action on it is super high. He was told at a shop to get the saddle filed down. He asked me for advice on this and so (naturally) I came here. Is this something that could be done by anyone handy with a file...
